Install Synergia with Spack¶

Synergia has preliminary support for installing via Spack

Before attempting the Spack installation, make sure you have a C++ compiler and either Environment Modules or
Lmod installed.
(If both are available, choose Lmod -- it is an update to Environment Modules.

• On Ubuntu:
  

  sudo apt install lmod
  

• On Scientific Linux, Redhat Linux or Centos:
  

  sudo yum install environment-modules
  

To install Synergia from scratch, do the following:

git clone http://cdcvs.fnal.gov/projects/synergia2 # or ssh://p-synergia2@cdcvs.fnal.gov/cvs/projects/synergia2 
cd synergia2
git checkout devel
./docs/devel/spack/spack-bootstrap
. spack-setup.sh
spack diy synergia2@devel
# wait a long time for a lot of stuff to be installed
. spack-setup.sh # you have to do this again due to a spack bug
spack load -r synergia2
cd spack-build
make test
